What is a map section?

The map section typically includes features such as the ability to zoom in and out, navigate using street view, and sometimes includes additional information like directions, nearby points of interest, or contact details related to the location displayed on the map. Setting up a map section on a website involves embedding the map using a map API (Application Programming Interface) such as Google Maps API or OpenStreetMap API. This usually requires obtaining an API key and customizing the map's appearance, functionality, and information displayed to suit the website's needs.
